Modesto CA wants to press charges against man leaving his wife

It was a shitty thing to do, no doubt, but nothing necessarily illegal. I can't remember really, but did that one woman who actually did have sexual relations with that boy under 18 and had a baby (she was the superintendent or something) catch as much flack as this guy is getting for doing something completely legal?

Edit: Oh and she was 35 and married too. Idk if anyone remembers the story.

Modesto police are trying to determine if there was inappropriate contact between the teacher and the student before she turned 18 in the fall, the Bee reported.

Female teachers get away with far more than this. Another sign of obvious double-standards.

It's a crappy thing to do, but perfectly legal so long as he didn't have sex with her before she was of legal age.

Someone doing something other people don't like, but entirely legal? There must be something in the rooms full of laws that can get this guy punished for doing nothing knowingly illegal.

Why the blatantly misleading headline? He's not being investigated for leaving his wife, he's being investigated for possibly having an inappropriate relationship with a girl as a minor. He would be in this position if he were married or not. All this sensationalist stuff makes me wonder if we are as trigger happy as OP thinks we are.

That guy is a selfish asshole. "Follow our hearts" is what people say so they don't have to feel bad about the people they are hurting.

This story was posted yesterday as well

Misleading title--they're considering pressing charges against him for seducing his student. Did you miss this part?

The newspaper reports that the man, who had taught business and computer classes, left his wife and children, to move in with Jordan Powers, an Enochs High School senior whom he met when she was a freshman (read: 14 damn years old) at the school.

I mean, it was in the damn title. Seriously--are we defending potential child molesters so long as they are men?

Nothing says "I'm 41 and still fuck 18 year olds." like that smirk.
